Damian’s biological father, Steve Bing, took his own life in June 2020, jumping from his 27th floor apartment in Los Angeles.\u00a0It was revealed last year that\u00a0Damian would not receive a penny from his late father, after his paternal grandfather fought to overturn the decision to include him in Steve’s will.<\/p>\n
Shane, who died suddenly from a heart attack while on a ‘lads’ holiday’,\u00a0had said to ABC host Leigh Sales that he wanted ‘to become a better person’ when dating Elizabeth back in 2010.<\/p>\n
